Hudasky's Raiders

Hudasky's Raiders

byFrank Harvey

Frank Harvey's new novel contains some of the most exciting writing about jet bombers and about naval life that has appeared since the war. The scene is the US aircraft carrier Omaha Beach. It is peacetime but conditions of service are so dangerous and the mortality rate among pilots in training is so high that warlike conditions of tension build up among them. The tension plays havoc with the lives of their women, who have to live at the same furious rate as the men.The Omaha Beach costs not only men's lives but a vast amount in taxpayers' money. This is the story of the attempt by an anti-Navy lobby and by the Air Force to discredit the Navy's carriers. Senator and seaman, journalist and jet pilot, are faithfully and thrillingly portrayed.Show more
